Title: Craft Fair & market
Post by: andykim on January 12, 2009, 04:51:45 PM
I have just booked into a Craft Fair in Uckfield. They are held every 1st Saturday throughout the year, but due to various other commitments, rallies & holiday I will not be able to do them all. I am going to try February's & see how it goes.
It is £22.00 for a 6' table & is free to customers which is good.

All ready now for my fair tomorrow. What a week what with the snow & Little S off for 2 days. OH setting up his eBay shop (me I should say) with his collectible toys etc (collectatoy19) which went mad so I had trips to the post office everyday.
Still I have made & wrapped all I can now so just got to load the car tonight & I am ready to go.

how did it go on Saturday chicken lady?

Bit slow. The hall was not on the high street & there was a farmers market in the town which everyone seemed to go to first.
OH & Little S said there was a lady selling cream & soap which was more expensive & had no labels on with ingredients etc??? Many people found her before coming in to the hall then said Oh what a shame I have just purchased from the framers market & did not know you would be here.
Covered the cost of the stall but that was all.
Still one lady who was a beautician took a card & asked about bulk orders so something might come of that.
Thank you for asking.

good you covered the stall, would you consider the farmers market then? i want to do farmers market too as i always find myself inside  towards the back, and by some bizarre stroke of  luck there is always someone in front of .

Never mind CL, an experience which you can build upon I guess and at least your not out of pocket.
